Faculty Orientation And for the first time since these conferences began, it was suggested that a similar program be adopted by the faculty to orientate other faculty memb?rs who also are commuters—to SC and what it stands for.
It was pointed out that a great many faculty members, like students, merely come to SC, teach some classes, and leaw when they are over, without ever really get ting to know- the school.
The problems of integrating the independent student into life at SC was l>?ld similar to the commuter integration problem — but with these additions:
Both Greg Taylor and Lauretta Misraje independent mens and women's representatives respectively, felt that eliminating independent apathy would have to come gradually through an intensive publicity campaign.
OK Rmind-TTp But Taylor said he believed the “orientation w?ek round-up'• program was a very big step in the right direction. He and Miss Misraje emphasized, however, that perhaps a new word could be found to replace independenr. They felt that as things now stand there is a mistaken stigma attached to the word which make
